Preparation

Step 1

1 Cook rice following instructions on package (Bring 2 cups water to a boil, add rice and a dash of salt, reduce heat and simmer in covered saucepan for 20 minutes). 2 Pour rice into a large bowl to let it cool in the refrigerator. 3 Scramble the eggs in a small pan over medium heat. 4 Separate the scrambled chunks of egg into small pea-size bits while cooking. 5 When rice has cooled to near room temperature, add peas, grated carrot, scrambled egg and diced onion to the bowl. 6 Carefully toss all of the ingredients together. 7 Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium/high heat. 8 When butter has completely melted, dump the bowl of rice and other ingredients into the pan and add soy sauce plus a dash of salt and pepper. 9 Cook rice for 6-8 minutes over heat, stirring often.
